The first unit of the largest overseas hydropower station invested and constructed by China Energy Engineering Corporation was officially connected to the grid for power generation: the average annual power generation reached 3.212 billion kilowatt-hours

According to this site’s news on August 12, China Energy Construction Group Co., Ltd. issued a document today announcing that the first unit of Pakistan’s SK Hydropower Station, the largest overseas greenfield hydropower investment project by a Chinese enterprise, was officially connected to the grid for power generation on August 12, local time.

According to reports, the SK Hydropower Station is controlled and invested by China Energy Construction Investment Company, Gezhouba International Company participated in the investment, Gezhouba No. 3 Company, and Gezhouba Mechanical and Electrical Company were constructed. The power station is located on the Kunhar River in Cape Province, Pakistan. It is a diversion-type hydropower station with a long tunnel and ultra-high water head.

The total investment of the power station is US$1.962 billion, with a water head of more than 900 meters. A total of 4 impact units are installed, the total installed capacity is 884 MW, and the total storage capacity is 13.45 million cubic meters.

SK Hydropower Station has the largest overseas single-machine impact turbine generator unit and the world's deepest pressure shaft group. At the same time, SK Hydropower Station is also the largest hydropower station invested and constructed overseas by China Energy Engineering Corporation.

1. The first unit of SK Hydropower Station completed the waterless commissioning test on May 25.

2. The water commissioning test was completed on June 16th.
3. The unit overspeed test was completed on June 20.
4. All electrical tests will be completed on July 1st, and conditions for grid-connected power generation will be met.
5. The reverse power supply test was completed on August 7, achieving "one successful installation, one successful startup, one successful debugging, and one successful trial operation" of the first unit.

   

   Inquiries on this site revealed that after the project is fully put into operation, the average annual power generation capacity is expected to reach 3.212 billion kilowatt hours, which can save approximately 1.28 million tons of standard coal per year and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 3.2 million tons , providing affordable and clean electricity to more than 1 million Pakistani households.

Pakistan SK Hydropower Station was officially approved to start construction on December 31, 2016, and it is expected that all units will be put into operation by the end of August 2024. During the construction of the project, Energy China builders created engineering miracles such as the world's highest water head under construction, and the world's deepest shaft group that is more than 240 stories deep and less than 6 meters in diameter.
